A Widow In Paradise
by Donna Birdsell

There are few problems that can't be fixed by a golf bag full of money.

At least, that's what overwhelmed mom of four Dannie Treat thinks when she stumbles on the cash stashed in her garage. But she soon discovers that the bills are about as fake as her missing husband's supposed death.

The paper trail leads her to Guy Loughran, whose wife also disappeared recently…along with the mob money Guy borrowed to open his own saloon. Now, less than twenty-four hours after meeting Guy, they are headed to the Caribbean in search of the truth.

Maybe it's the umbrella drinks or the dirty dancing, but Dannie is about to become a widow in paradise. Good times…

Free bonus book in this volume! Suburban Secrets by Donna Birdsell—Truth or Dare: it's not just for slumber parties anymore.
